A Brown County Circuit Court Judge sentenced Anrietta Geske to 80 years in prison for killing Ashley Britsch-Knetzger, 18, and Talhia Heroux, 18, in an Ashwaubenon car accident.
Last March, a jury found Geske guilty of two counts of first-degree reckless homicide, two counts of homicide by intoxicated use of a motor vehicle and a single count of first-degree reckless endangerment for the crash.
After sentencing Geske, Brown County Circuit Judge Sue Bischel commented:
“You were the person, the only person in this room, solely responsible for this devastation and pain and you had no reaction to the faces of the girls you killed girls similar in age to the daughters you love so much.”
Both girls were killed instantly when Geskes speeding Porsche ran a red light and broadsided their vehicle. Geskes BAC was .072 percent two hours after the crash.
